Long Range GSM at Sea

Extended coverage,

Expanded possibilities.

HANSAEL Long Range GSM offers an extended range GSM service as an alternative to near-shore satellite communications.

The ability to receive and use fast data GSM services on a day-to-day basis, from anywhere, has presented a problem for the maritime industry, with limitations on offshore reach. Satellite communications can be used when GSM signals become unstable or lost completely, but offer limited data speeds.

HANSAEL Long Range GSM is an on-board device that increases the range and quality of GSM services offshore, with the added ability to switch over to a satellite connection ( Fleet Broadband, Thuraya, Iridium Pilot, VSAT) should the need arise.

HANSAEL GSM solution works across all global mobile GSM service frequencies, meaning customers are not limited to a particular mobile network provider.

HANSAEL Long Range GSM has the ability to failover to other available networks such as VSAT, Fleet BroadBand, Iridium OpenPort or Thuraya IP, giving added resilient communication capability onboard.

The high quality parts used and selected by HANSAEL for the HANSAEL Long Range GSM solution mean the amount of data loss is kept to a minimum and a stable connection held for an increased range when further offshore.
